DGL was also 'by the gamers' and look what happened to it due to poor maintenance and activity

There really wasn't poor maintenance. DGL is a pretty hard-working group and their organizational skills are exceptional. There was a lack of activity. I think the gaming community back then wasn't as enthusiastic or as big as it is today!

The gaming community is big. but it is probably bigger than we think. i think the problem with gaming forums is that most gamers don't know that it is actually there. I 4 example came 2 know abt DGL only last year although it was there 4 a long time.(no, i wasn't locked in a cage all these years.^^)
